Deficits of Alzheimer's Disease Neuropsychological Architecture Correlate with Specific Exosomal mRNA Expression: Evidence of a Continuum?

ABSTRACT: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by cognitive decline and complex molecular changes. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), particularly exosomes, play a key role in intercellular communication and disease progression, transporting proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. While altered exosomal mRNA profiles have emerged as potential biomarkers for AD, the relationship between mRNA expression and AD neuropsychological deficits remains unclear. Here, we investigated the correlation between exosomx10-derived mRNA signatures and neuropsychological performance in a cohort from Barranquilla, Colombia. Expression profiles of 16,585 mRNAs in 15 AD patients and 15 healthy controls were analysed using Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) and the Predictive Power Score (PPS). We
